Ground Report

<p class="MsoNormal">Permitting me to float upon my sea,<br />
Although well within the headlands of your fears.<br />
Prior to I was myself you made me, me</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Through dreams sufficient of what I was to be<br />
Plus hopes that would be sculpted by the years,<br />
Next bit by bit stepped back to set me free,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Relinquishing your powers gradually<br />
To let me shape myself among my peers.<br />
Prior to I was myself you made me, me,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With being good and wise, you gracefully<br />
As dancers when the last sweet cadence nears<br />
Bit by bit stepped back to set me free.</p>
